context_section_description: To start the 2009–10 season, Hummel was picked as one of fifty players as a preseason John R. Wooden Award candidate, along with teammate, E'Twaun Moore. He was a Preseason First Team All-Big Ten pick by both CBS Sports and Big Ten Network and a Preseason 2nd Team All-American pick by ESPN analysts, Doug Gottlieb and Jay Williams. Near mid-season, he was selected as one of thirty finalists for the Naismith Award. With MVP E'Twaun Moore, Hummel was named to the 2009 Paradise Jam All-Tournament Team after a victory over #10 Tennessee. During a school record-tying 14–0 season start on December 29, 2009 against Iowa, Hummel broke a school record, making 36 consecutive free throws, previously held by Jerry Sichting's 34, which was set three decades earlier. He tied his former assistant coach, Cuonzo Martin's single game school record of 8 three point-field goals made in a losing effort against an Evan Turner-led Ohio State team on January 12, 2010, in which he also scored a career high 35 points and received a dislocated pinky finger. In his team's tenth straight win in conference play at Minnesota on February 24, Hummel injured his right knee in the first half after he slipped while attempting to plant his foot. He scored 11 points, making 3 of 4 three-pointers, in his prior twelve minutes of the game. Purdue officials reported the following day that Hummel tore his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and would miss the rest of the season. He finished the last five games as a junior perfect from the free throw line, making all 21 of his attempts.
  Playing 30.3 minutes per game, he averaged 15.7 points (2nd on team), 6.9 rebounds (1st), 1.1 steals, 1 block, and 2.1 assists, while shooting 45.6 percent from the floor and led the Big Ten at 90.2 percent from the line, while also leading the nation amongst players at the forward position. He also shot 36.4 percent beyond the arc (2nd). Hummel scored at least 11 points in all but three games on the season (24–3), including ten straight, while recording eight double-doubles and being named a First Team All-Big Ten selection for the second time in his career at Purdue, while also being named a Fox Sports Third-Team All-American, a State Farm and NABC Second Team All-American, and an Associated Press Honorable Mention All-American. He averaged 16.2 points and 7.3 rebounds per game in Big Ten Conference play for the #3 ranked team in the nation (12–3). Hummel received knee surgery and had to wait 4 to 6 months for the healing process.
